Sheriff Bartlett was notified by a
Missouri Pacific employe this morn
ing that a man was lying seriously
injured near the track west Of the
city. Mr.. Bartlett, County Attorney
Moore, Coroner Brown, and J. +.
Anderson soon went TO the spot in
dictated but found the man had been
removed to the house Of a Mr..
Peters, near at hand. An examin-
alton showed four wounds to have
been caused to the head, two Of them
an inch or more in length and about
a third of an inch deep. However
he was removed to his residence on
Third street, on the river bank. His
head was washed, the hair
shaved off and the gashes sewed up
by DIR. SwitZer, and he is resting
very easily, with no serious results
apprehended. He has not yet be-
come fully sober. His name Is Hal
quist, tailor. who il employed by
Hill x Lindb'oOm.
He has been ON drunken spree
more or less for the past ten days,
and il il supposed last night, la one
Of his moments of drunken stupOr,
wandered west To the railroad
instead of east To his home. He Is
Swede 10y nationality, aud Mr..
Anderson undertook tu inquire how
lac became hurt, hut Was
unable io learn anything, except
that il was not done 10y any person.
II IL. thought 10y some that he fell
against the track or a sharp cor
ner Of tie and injured himself; 10y
others that the row-cateher struck
him as he lay on the track. The lat
ter view il the more plausible one,
a. there was a pool of blood where
hr rested. lie will probably be able
to tell more Of the accident when he
SObers up.

II is announced that Mr.. Morse
has let the contract for the erection
Of seven l4xGO stalls on the Weaver
livery stable lots. to Kruger x Ha-
gan. There is general disgust upon
the cNuntenances Of citizens over
this news. There seems to be pop
ular opinion that there is now a
sufficient number OF peanut stands
in the city, in fact the peanut bust
ness is OverdOne and there is no
more demand for stores to accom-
mOdate that kind OF trade. There is
even talk Of raising by subscription
sufficient money to put up such
buildings there a. man Of the
wealth Of Mr.. Morse should be more
than willing to erect, il he has any
enterprise whatever. II is a down
right shame that such rOOkeries
should be allowed in one Of our
principal business blocks, and We
hope to see Mr.. Morse decide finally
to add a second story TO his build
ings.
